Summer Term 2019

A big welcome back to school to all the children in Class 2A. We hope you had a lovely Easter holiday.

Summer Term Overview

The children will be covering lots of interesting topics in all the different curriculum areas this Summer term. Please see the document below to find out more.

Summer Term Reminders

PE The children will have PE on a Tuesday morning. Please ensure your child's PE kit is in school on this days. We will continue with our swimming lessons at Carlton Forum on a Friday morning, please ensure your child remembers to bring their swimming kit. 

Reading

• If your child reads 3 times a week they will be rewarded with a green card.
• Every time your child reads three times in one week, they will also get a square marked off on their challenge board. An adult in school will sign and date this square. This can be found at the back of their reading diary. We will reward your child with reading pins (bronze, silver and gold) in a 'reading achievement' assembly.

Spellings

Your child will bring home their Spelling Log Book on a Monday. Each week they will have up to 12 new words to learn how to spell. Please can they practice these words in pencil on the same page as their word list. They will need to bring their Spelling Log Book to school every Monday for their test and for their new word list to be stuck in.

Times Tables

We are continuing to practice our 3 ,4 and 8 times tables. Each week the children will have a  timed test and the challenge will be to try and improve their scores and aim to get them all correct.

Well done to all the children in Class 2A who took part in the egg rolling competition today.

Take a look at our decorated eggs.

 Spring Term - History

The children have enjoyed learning about the Romans this half term. We have learnt lots about the Roman army and we all made our own Roman legionary. We had a great day finding out about the Romans at Southwell Minster.

Spring Term -Art

In art, we have been looking at the artist Kandinsky and have studied his paintings. We created our own Kandinsky style picture. We sponge printed the background and drew around shapes which we coloured with oil pastels. We arranged the shapes onto the background and drew straight lines and curved lines on top of our shapes.

Please take a look at our work which is displayed in the classroom.

School Council

Anae Russell Dalton and Jack Heywood have been elected by their peers to represent Class 2A on the school council. They will attend meetings and provide feedback to the class.
